The water cycle is also known as the?
Hydrologic cycle
400
What is Evaporation?
What is when the energy for the sun heats up the surface of the earth, causing the temperature of the water in our river, lakes, and oceans to rise. When this happens some of the water evaporates into the air, turning into a gas. 
400
It is possible for a solid to transform into a gas directly (without becoming a liquid). The most common example of this is dry ice. 
What is Sublimation. 
400
How is snow formed?

Snow is formed when water in the upper air freezes into crystals.


400
True or False Clouds are white because of how they reflect off the earth's surface?

False-- Clouds are white because their water droplets or ice crystals are large enough to scatter the light of the seven wavelengths (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet), which combine to produce white light.

400
How long has earth been recycling water?
For over 4 billion years
500
What is Collection?
Collection is when oceans and lakes collect water that has fallen. Water evaporates into the sky again and the cycle continues over again. 
500
What is...
In a process similar to sweating, plants lose water which is absorbed into the atmosphere much like evaporation. 
 What is Transpiration
